Hampton Inn & Suites Arlington Crystal City DCA

Have an early flight from DCA so decided to spend a night near the airport and Hampton Inn seems to be one the less expensive options compared to several others almost right by the metro. But it's not much further, perfectly walkable about a third of a mile although in the snow with luggage a bit tricky. It's a nice looking property with modern decor as Hampton Inns go. Check in not the fastest but ok. We had a studio which was very spacious, especially the bathroom area. Only problem is there is only one chair. Also room lighting not very bright - the desk lamp by the chair is not bright enough to read by - ended up moving the chair into the very well lit bathroom/closet area in order to read. Other than that the room overall is not bad, comfy bed (pillows could be firmer), temps good and the heating unit not too noisy. And most importantly very clean. Location is good - lots of restaurants within walking distance - Peter Chang's Nihao is one of our favorites - and two Whole Food markets. One other thing to improve - the free airport shuttle doesn't start till 4:30 am, which for some flights that depart at 6 am is a bit late if you are the type of traveler who like to get to the airport early and not feel rushed.

The hotel was clean and convenient. Front desk staff were pleasant and helpful. On-site parking was more than we wanted to pay, but at least it was convenient. Fresh fruit ran out quickly at breakfast and was not replenished.

Breakfast was good, gym was serviceable, Location was perfect

Maid service every 4 days was disappointing, the TV service completely went out 3 times during the week. Water pressure was poor
